Interviewed Jan 2012 in Chicago, IL (took 1+ week)
I submitted my Rsume via the web site and was contacted by an internal recruiter within a week via email. My phone screen was scheduled within a week from them, then my phone interview with the hiring manager was scheduled immediately within 2 days. After that I had an in-person interview with the hiring manager, another manager in the group, other folks from similar groups.mi had an offer,less than 5 days after my in person interview. Overall the whole process was quick, efficient and very nice. Everyone was very friendly, caring and helpful with each step of the process.

Interviewed Feb 2012 in Chicago, IL (took 2 weeks)
Applied online, was contacted by the recruiter for over the phone screening. About a week later got an email from someone at the company inviting me for on site interview with 4 people. The interviewers were all very nice and they mostly asked behavioral questions. How do you deal with situation when... and the like. Overall, it seems like there are lot of smart people working there and from what I could tell it is pleasant place to work. Unfortunately, it has been few weeks and I have never heard back from anyone at the company. Emailed the recruiter to ask about the decision but got no response. That is the only aspect of the interview that they handled unprofessionally.

Interviewed Oct 2011 in Chicago, IL (took a day)
I got a phone interview, followed by an on-site interview. The questions for the phone interview was rather simple and it consists of a behavioral interview section and also a technical skills section. The same goes for the on-site interview process. The questions are rather easy compared to the ones I have encountered, and it seems that the on-site is more for the employees to determine which candidate they like more rather than an actual technical skills / cultural fit interview.

Interviewed Mar 2011 in Chicago, IL (took 2 days)
I saw the position posted on the company site. I contacted the hiring manager via email to introduce myself, gave a resume and a writing sample. I had two 1 on 1 interviews with the manager and director of the department.
The type of job as well as the working conditions fit very well with my background.

Interviewed Dec 2010 in Chicago, IL (took 2 weeks)
First did phone interviews with the recruiter and the hiring manager. Then went for an in-person interview with 3 separate people. They were eager to fill the position and I was a good fit, so the interview was pretty easy. Standard questions - why I wanted to leave my old job, why this job sounded interesting, what experience do I have related to this job, etc...

Interviewed Jan 2010 in Chicago, IL (took 1 week)
I arrived at the office and discovered that the hiring manager was out sick. However, I did do a half hour phone interview with him in the conference room. Then I met with 3 different people for 1 on 1 interviews. I think perhaps 2 were manager level positions within the finance department and 1 was a senior analyst level. Each interviewer asked me to describe my past work experience and gave me behavior-type questions. The atmosphere was friendly, casual, and relaxed in every interview.
A couple of days later, I returned for a 1 hour interview with the hiring manger. I was asked to describe my work experience and interests in more detail and answered some more behavioral-type questions. These behavior-type questions seemed to be more related to whether or not my personality would fit with the group. (Questions like: Tell me about a time when you had a conflict with your manager.)
After my interviews, I emailed and called HR and the hiring manager several times to find out about the status of the position. I never heard back from anyone. I was very surprised by the lack of professionalism of this company and found this to be extraordinarily rude.

Interviewed Jan 2011 in Chicago, IL (took 4 days)
I applied online for this job and then was contacted by a recruiter to schedule an interview with the team. The recruiter was very helpful and organized. I received an email that listed everyone's name and position that I would be meeting with. I basically met with the recruiter first for about 15 mins... then met with 2 sets of 2 people for 30 mins each.
The first group involved a senior designer and the design manager (who would be my manager)... the design manager had to leave early for another meeting and she seemed very preoccupied with other things going on. I didn't get to ask her any questions and was a little disappointed.
The next set of people involved a designer (who said nothing the whole time) and the creative director. The creative director seemed alittle preoccupied too with being on her phone .... though she was helpful in answering my questions. She let me know that they did just start the interview process and it might take a month to complete.
After, I emailed the recruiter to say thank you, etc... she emailed me the next day (2 days after my interview) to say that they filled the position. Weird!
